^As the studio lights reflected off Larry's shining face during the showcase showdown, I thought to myself 'in this day and age, they'd have powdered him down', but the seventies don't need no stinkin powder.

I'm more of a Match Game 73 man, myself. It's so much better than the other 72 match games.

Yep, I was a big Match Game fan.

Match Game 73, Susan vs. Karen!

So I watched this Match Game eps before bed last night and when I saw it was 29 minutes long, I knew it would include commercials and I was more excited to see them than anything. I totally remember the Liquid Plumber guy and the Halls lozenge commercial from back in the day. Remember when the Wicked Witch of the West plugged Maxwell House coffee? (I think it was MH).

Also, I had no idea Richard Dawson died recently (watching this episode made me google him and there I found out), that Jack Klugman is still alive (Quincy! Sam back in the lab did all the work and Quincy got all the glory) and it was nice to see Mama Cass. This whole thing just oozes seventies nostalgia!

When we lived in NYC in the 70's, our apartment had gold shag carpeting and chocolate brown walls. My mom would copy designs that Bob Mackie made for Cher and wear them to cocktail parties. The 70's were bad...

Oh man. Best! Match Game reruns on GSN were my procrastination method of choice during college. I had confusing feelings about Gene Rayburn. What's the word for when you have a crush on someone but also wish they were your uncle?
